About Multi-Family Residential Architecture
We don’t believe buildings have to scream to stand out. My approach to multi-family residential architecture is all about making spaces that feel like they truly belong - nothing flashy, nothing forced. More than twenty years in, I still think the best buildings are the ones that quietly fit in and grow with the people who live in them.
How I Design for People
- No more boring matchbox blocks. I go for forms that break the monotony and create room for real connection. Think open courtyards, green spaces, and layouts that make huge projects feel personal.
- Amenities aren’t stuffed in one spot. Instead, they're spread out, so every corner buzzes with life - a true community-focused apartment design.
- Nature isn’t an afterthought. I keep trees, use central greens, and always connect homes to the outdoors. Feels much better than staring at concrete.
- Well-being matters. Safe walkways, spaces for quiet and for gatherings, and zones where kids, elders, and everyone else can actually enjoy being outside.
Real Projects, Real Impact
- Designed Brigade Parkside East in Bengaluru with car-free central zones and lively clusters of activity.
- Senior living residential complexes, like Parkside Retirement Homes, where accessibility and dignity come first.
- Student housing architectural design at IIM Bangalore, with breakout spaces and leafy courtyards that invite people to hang out.
What Sets Us Apart
Every site’s a puzzle. I let the land guide the plan, using slopes and views to shape each project. We use sustainable multifamily housing solutions like natural ventilation, local materials, and passive cooling - good for the environment and for living well.

My Story
Twenty years and counting, Mindspace is just a bunch of us, architects and dreamers, trying to make spaces feel alive. Our roots go deep with places like IIM Bangalore - Sanjay and Medappa have been at it since before Mindspace was even a thing. We learn by watching, by wandering through forts and temples, by listening to people move through their world. It’s not about loud statements, more about fitting in quietly, finding our corner in the bigger picture. We keep growing, together.
My Work
Campus and Institutional Design - We handle big projects - campus master planning, hostels, classrooms, dining halls, and more.
Humane Architecture - Our spaces are made for people, with courtyards and spillover zones to spark community and connection.
Context-Driven Approach - We study every detail of existing buildings, blending new design with old, always respecting the vibe.
Material and Form - Love exposed concrete, stone, and subtle details. Each building gets its own quiet, contemporary identity.
